Eiyuden Chronicle devs say whether Switch or a successor, the game will come to Nintendo fans if the Kickstarter stretch goal is hit

Nintendo fans can rest easy

There's been a bit of confusion about the upcoming Kickstarter for Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes, a spiritual successor to the Suikoden series. PC is going to be the main focus, but there will be stretch goals for consoles. The team behind the project has clarified that one way or another, they're bringing the game to a Nintendo platform.

Development of Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes is expected to take over two years. By that time, the dev team isn't sure what Nintendo's spot will be in the hardware scene. Will the Switch still be going strong, or will a successor be announced? Either way, it doesn't really matter to the dev team. They've said that they'll assess the situation and then choose a path forward. They'll either tweak some things to make the game run on Switch, or release it for the Switch's follow-up hardware.

Again, all of this is only going to happen if the Kickstarter stretch goal is hit. The Kickstarter launches on July 27th, 2020, so I guess we'll find out soon enough!
